Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of antireflective film materials, and in particular to a dual anti-UV antireflective film and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, transparent plastics such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polycarbonate (PC) have been widely used in electronic displays due to their low cost. Although they possess excellent optical properties, they typically require a hard, scratch-resistant coating to improve their impact and abrasion resistance. Furthermore, an anti-reflective coating with fingerprint-resistant properties is often applied to the substrate to minimize unwanted reflections from the substrate. Anti-reflective films utilize the destructive interference between reflected light at different interfaces of the thin film coating to reduce the overall reflectivity of the substrate material, thereby reducing external light reflection and surface contamination, and improving the contrast, readability, and image quality of the electronic display.
[0003] Nowadays, people are increasingly reliant on electronic products, inevitably using consumer electronics such as mobile phones and tablets outdoors frequently, significantly increasing their exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Prolonged outdoor exposure can damage electronic displays, causing color distortion, fading, yellowing, cracking, peeling, embrittlement, and delamination, affecting screen clarity and brightness. When coatings or films are exposed outdoors, factors such as moisture, heat, and UV radiation can cause their degradation. UV radiation and moisture can chemically degrade film-forming resins, and these degradation reactions often accelerate at higher temperatures.
[0004] Patent CN109557604B discloses an anti-ultraviolet antireflective film and its application. The film is made by alternately stacking layers of dielectric materials with different refractive indices. By utilizing the different reflection and refraction effects of light waves with different wavelengths at the interface between the different dielectric material layers, it has an excellent reflection effect on ultraviolet light; however, its ultraviolet light transmittance is still as high as 5.9%.
[0005] Therefore, it is now necessary to improve existing technologies to provide more reliable solutions. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a dual anti-UV antireflective film and its preparation method, in order to address the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0017] Preferably, the second inorganic particle is a hollow mesoporous silica microsphere.
[0018] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the dual anti-UV antireflective film as described above, comprising the following steps:
[0019] S1. Preparation of UV-resistant curing coating:
[0020] Mix 6-12 parts by weight of acrylate monomers, 15-30 parts by weight of acrylic resin oligomers, 3-6 parts by weight of first inorganic particles, 60-80 parts by weight of solvent, 1-2 parts by weight of ultraviolet light absorber, 1-2 parts by weight of light stabilizer and 2-3 parts by weight of photoinitiator, and stir evenly to obtain UV-resistant curing coating liquid.

[0024] S4. Apply the low-refractive-index anti-UV coating liquid prepared in step S3 onto the anti-UV hardening coating formed in step S2. After drying and UV curing, a low-refractive-index anti-UV coating is formed on the anti-UV hardening coating to obtain the double anti-UV antireflective film.
[0025] Preferably, the anti-UV optical film is selected from PET, PMMA, PC, TAC or SRF film with anti-UV function;
[0026] The thickness of the UV-resistant curing coating is 2–6 μm, and the thickness of the low-refractive-index UV-resistant coating is 90–110 nm.
[0027] Preferably, the drying temperature in steps S2 and S4 is 90–110°C, and the drying time is 1–3 min.
[0028] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0029] This invention provides a dual anti-UV antireflective film by sequentially layering an anti-UV curing coating and a low-refractive-index anti-UV coating onto an anti-UV optical film. This film effectively prevents problems such as coating peeling and decreased mechanical properties caused by rapid material aging. The UV absorber in the anti-UV curing coating rapidly absorbs UV light from the environment, preventing chromophores in the material from absorbing UV energy and converting the absorbed light energy into harmless heat. The UV absorber also prevents UV rays from penetrating the resin polymer and causing internal degradation, significantly slowing down the degradation rate. During photo-oxidation, the light stabilizer acts as a free radical scavenger. It can interrupt the oxidation chain reaction in the photo-oxidation process, significantly reduce the degradation rate of resin polymers, and prevent the material from deteriorating due to degradation, resulting in poor appearance and mechanical properties. The inorganic particles added to the coating liquid can also act as light shielding agents to absorb or reflect ultraviolet rays, preventing them from penetrating into the coating. The anti-UV optical film can further inhibit ultraviolet rays from damaging the resin polymers, improve the anti-aging performance of the product, and extend its service life. The dual anti-UV anti-reflective film of this invention can increase transmittance and reduce reflectance, thereby reducing image distortion and glare, allowing users to enjoy clearer image quality. The added fluorinated modified resin can improve abrasion resistance and extend service life.
[0030] In this invention, the multifunctional acrylate monomers added to the curing and antireflective coatings exhibit high reactivity, high crosslinking density, high hardness of the cured film, and excellent tensile strength, thereby improving the photocuring efficiency and crosslinking density of the curing and antireflective films. The ultraviolet absorber acts as a filter for ultraviolet light, absorbing most of the high-energy, harmful radiation and releasing it as heat, significantly slowing down the degradation rate of the resin polymer. After the polymer dissociates under light radiation to generate free radicals, the light stabilizer captures these active free radicals, making them stable compounds and greatly delaying the aging of the polymer material. The disadvantage of the ultraviolet absorber is that it cannot protect the entire thickness of the coating; it requires a limited path length to achieve significant absorbance, meaning its protective ability weakens the closer it is to the coating surface. In contrast, the effect of the light stabilizer does not change with the decrease in coating thickness. By compounding the ultraviolet absorber and the light stabilizer, there is a mutual protective effect between them, exhibiting a synergistic effect, thus achieving better protective performance.
[0031] In this invention, the inorganic particles in the coating liquid can not only increase the hardness of the coating and reduce the reflectivity of the coating, but also absorb or reflect ultraviolet rays, reduce the direct radiation of light into the interior of the resin polymer, reduce the harm of ultraviolet rays, and further inhibit photo-oxidative degradation.
[0032] Since ultraviolet light absorbers can absorb ultraviolet light, they can affect the initiation efficiency of photoinitiators. In this invention, the proportion of photoinitiator added to monomers and oligomers is increased to 6-9% to prevent the coating from curing incompletely due to too low an amount of initiator, which would affect the coating's adhesion and wear resistance. At the same time, it prevents the formation of reaction byproducts due to too high an amount of initiator, which could affect the photoinitiated polymerization or curing effect.
[0033] In this invention, the fluorinated modified acrylic resin oligomer can form a smooth fluorine film on the coating surface after curing. This film not only prevents the adhesion of water and oil and maintains excellent slip properties, but also protects the surface from scratches, greatly enhances the friction resistance, and extends the service life of the product.

This invention obtains a dual anti-UV antireflective film by sequentially coating an anti-UV curing solution and a low-refractive-index anti-UV solution onto an anti-UV optical film. This effectively prevents problems such as coating peeling and decreased mechanical properties caused by rapid material aging. The ultraviolet absorber in the anti-UV curing solution can quickly absorb ultraviolet light from the environment, preventing the chromophores in the material from absorbing ultraviolet energy, and converting the absorbed light energy into harmless heat.

[0096] (3) Pencil hardness: Place the film sample on a horizontal and stable surface, insert the ground MITSU-BISHI UNI test pencil into the test instrument, with the pencil lead tip in contact with the surface to be tested at a 45° angle, draw 5 parallel lines with a length of 5cm under a load of 1000g, and then observe the optical film coating under a fluorescent lamp.

The UV transmittance at 380 nm was significantly improved, and the cross-sectional area B (0.5%) and elongation at break after solar radiation were significantly reduced. Compared to Comparative Example 2, Example 1 did not contain any light stabilizers in its UV-resistant curing liquid and low-refractive-index UV-resistant coating. The UV transmittance at 380 nm was not significantly improved, and the cross-sectional area B (0.5%) and elongation at break after solar radiation were significantly reduced. Compared to Comparative Example 3, Example 1 did not contain any UV-resistant optical film substrate. The UV transmittance at 380 nm was significantly improved, and the cross-sectional area B (2.5%) and elongation at break after solar radiation were significantly reduced. Compared to Comparative Example 4, Example 1 did not contain any unfluorinated modified resin in its low-refractive-index coating. The steel wool abrasion resistance was only 10 times before it was OK. Compared to Comparative Example 5, Example 1 showed a significant decrease in cross-section 1B and elongation at break after solar radiation due to the addition of 1.9 parts by weight of photoinitiator to the UV-resistant curing liquid and low-refractive-index UV-resistant coating liquid in Comparative Example 5. Compared to Comparative Example 6, Example 1 showed a significant decrease in cross-section 2B and elongation at break after solar radiation due to the addition of 3.1 parts by weight of photoinitiator to the UV-resistant curing liquid and low-refractive-index UV-resistant coating liquid in Comparative Example 6.
[0107] The comparison between the above examples and comparative examples shows that: using only UV absorbers, light stabilizers or substrates with anti-UV function is not ideal. The synergistic effect of UV absorbers, light stabilizers and anti-UV films can effectively reduce the damage caused by ultraviolet rays passing through the resin polymer and prevent the material from aging too quickly. Adding fluorinated modified resin can significantly improve the friction resistance of the anti-reflective film. Too little or too much photoinitiator will affect the adhesion of the coating after the material ages.
[0108] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed above, they are not limited to the applications listed in the specification and embodiments. They can be applied to various fields suitable for the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other modifications can be easily made. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and their equivalents, the present invention is not limited to the specific details.
